With a deep-cold glance at Liu Xi and Jialie Ao opposite him, Mo Yu turned his head slightly and looked at Xiao Yu's pretty face, flushed with shame and anger. His tone softened as he said, "Don't worry. With me here."

It was the first time Mo Yu had treated her with such dominance, and Xiao Yu was clearly stunned. The flush on her pretty face quietly deepened, and she moved her eyes around helplessly, saying, "I ran into Xun'er when I came out. She said she wanted to come take a look, so I accompanied her. How was I supposed to know we'd run into this bunch of bastards?"

Mo Yu nodded, then shifted his gaze to the young girl in green beside them and asked, "Are you all right?"

The young girl nodded lightly and smiled. "I'm fine. Cousin Mo Yu arrived just in time..."

Before Xun'er could finish speaking, a calm yet deep-cold voice rang out. "Anyone who touched the Xiao Family just now—cripple them all!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a youth holding an iron club walked out. Behind him were dozens of burly men, all holding iron clubs as well.

As the black-clothed youth's voice fell, the dozens of Xiao Family men behind him immediately charged at the guards of the Jialie Family with sinister grins.

"Brother Xiao Yan." When she saw the black-clothed youth, Xun'er's little face immediately lit up, and she happily went over to greet him.

Seeing this scene, Mo Yu and Xiao Yu looked at each other. Compared to the passionate affection between the young couple, Mo Yu and Xiao Yu had always treated each other with mutual respect.

However, after what had happened this time, the two had also become much more in sync.

"Cousin Mo Yu, thank goodness you came." After taking care of Xun'er, Xiao Yan hurried over and said this.

"I only arrived a little before you." Mo Yu waved his hand and smiled.

"Hmph, Xiao Family's Twin Dragons, you've finally appeared!" Jialie Ao said angrily as he looked at the four people who seemed to be chatting as if no one else were around.

"Who are they?" Liu Xi's gaze was equally deep-cold. Seeing the two beautiful women leaning against the two youths, he found it difficult to accept.

"Big Brother Liu Xi, these two are the Xiao Family's so-called Twin Dragons. The one in black is Xiao Yan, and the one in green is Mo Yu, the one who refined the Thunder Fire Bead!" Jialie Ao introduced them with a sinister smile beside Liu Xi.

"Oh? The so-called useless Artifact Refiner?" Liu Xi gave a Cold Smile.

Hearing Liu Xi's words, Xiao Yu's pretty face flushed with anger. Having already regarded Mo Yu as the most important person in her heart, she was naturally enraged by anyone who insulted him.

Xiao Yan and Xun'er also looked unfriendly. The Thunder Fire Bead had contributed greatly to the Xiao Family's reversal against the Jialie Family. Insulting Mo Yu was the same as insulting the Xiao Family.

Mo Yu reached out and lightly patted Xiao Yu's furious hand. He looked calmly at Liu Xi. "You can only refine Healing Medicine with a little low-grade Medicinal Power. As an Alchemist, you don't seem to be anything special either."

Hearing this, the surrounding Mercenaries burst into uproarious laughter. After the Jialie Family's profiteering some time ago, these Mercenaries harbored quite a bit of resentment toward the creator of the Spring Return Powder. Seeing Mo Yu mock him to his face now, they all felt rather satisfied.

Moreover, conflicts between Artifact Refiners and Alchemists were something rarely seen in a lifetime.

The surrounding laughter caused Liu Xi's face to gradually darken. His eyes were Deep Cold as he Stared At Mo Yu. "It's difficult to compare the superiority of Alchemy and Artifact Refining. Since that's the case, why don't we let our true strength speak for itself?

"You and I will fight and see whether your mouth is tougher or your strength. I just wonder whether you, the so-called Genius known as the Xiao Family's Dragon, actually dare!"

"Shameless!" Xiao Yu immediately scolded him. "You're already over twenty, and you're also an Alchemist. You actually have the nerve to issue such a challenge!"

It was common knowledge that Artifact Refiners never lacked pills, so their strength improved much faster than ordinary people's. Furthermore, Liu Xi looked seven or eight years older than Mo Yu. Thus, there was absolutely no fairness in this challenge.

After hearing this, the surrounding Mercenaries nodded as well, looking at Liu Xi with disdain.

Seeing this, Liu Xi glanced at Mo Yu's expressionless face and gave a Cold Smile. "I am indeed a few years older than you, and my strength is also that of a Six-Star Dou Practitioner. But if you don't dare accept the challenge, then forget it. From now on, don't use that damn title of Artifact Refiner. You're nothing more than a coward."

"Six-Star Dou Practitioner?" Hearing this, Xiao Yu Breathed a Sigh of Relief. Fortunately, she had stopped the challenge. Among the younger generation, the strength of a Six-Star Dou Practitioner could be considered outstanding.

Just as she was celebrating having helped Mo Yu avoid a major problem, the youth's calm voice suddenly rang out.

"You seem to hate Artifact Refiners. Since that's the case, I accept your challenge."

Hearing this, Liu Xi was stunned at first. Then, a vicious smile slowly spread across his Corner of the Mouth. "You're seeking death yourself, so don't blame me!"

When they heard that Mo Yu had accepted, everyone present—whether they were members of the Xiao Family or the Mercenaries—immediately erupted in commotion.

After all, no matter how outstanding Mo Yu's talent was, the difference in their levels was something no one could ignore.

Just as everyone thought the matter could not get any more outrageous, Jialie Ao looked toward Xiao Yan, who was cuddling with Xun'er beside him. A nameless fire rose in his heart, and he pointed at Xiao Yan angrily.

"Xiao Yan, I heard that you've improved very quickly recently and have even gotten rid of your reputation as a good-for-nothing. Since that's the case, you've already undergone your Coming-of-Age Ceremony, right? How about I challenge you as well?"

The moment he said this, everyone felt that the Jialie Family was utterly shameless.

Bullying those younger than them was one thing, but they were doing it twice in a row. Couldn't they use any other methods?

Just when everyone thought Jialie Ao's plan would be useless—after all, many people knew that Jialie Ao was a Three Star Dou Practitioner, while Xiao Yan was only seventeen and had just undergone his Coming-of-Age Ceremony

the black-clothed youth beside them suddenly stepped forward and said calmly, "I accept your challenge!"

Hearing this, the onlookers felt as if they were dreaming. Mo Yu had accepted a Six-Star Dou Practitioner's challenge, and moments later, Xiao Yan had accepted a Three Star Dou Practitioner's challenge.

Could the Xiao Family's Twin Dragons be crazy? The Xiao Family's Twin Fools?

Xiao Yu's pretty face also darkened slightly. Although she did not know Mo Yu's exact strength, she knew he was definitely no ordinary person. He had been able to defeat her easily a few months ago, and since he dared to accept the challenge now, he must have extraordinary methods.

But a few months ago, Xiao Yan had only possessed the strength of the Eighth Stage Dou Qi. Where had he gotten his confidence?

"Cousin Xiao Yan, it looks like your strength has suddenly improved greatly recently." Seeing that Xiao Yan had accepted the challenge, Mo Yu did not find it unexpected and spoke calmly.

"Hehe, I'm still far behind Cousin Mo Yu." Seeing that Mo Yu did not even take a Six-Star Dou Practitioner seriously, Xiao Yan also felt a surge of fighting spirit. That was why he had resolutely accepted Jialie Ao's challenge.

Seeing how relaxed the two people opposite them looked, Jialie Ao and Liu Xi exchanged glances. Deep in their Eyes, both revealed a trace of ruthless intent.

The Jialie Family had plotted to cripple Mo Yu long ago, but they had never found an opportunity. Now, not only could they cripple Mo Yu, they could also cripple Xiao Yan in passing. It could not have been better.

Wasn't the most important thing for a family its fresh blood? Once the Xiao Family's Twin Dragons were crippled, the Xiao Family

would be finished!
